NewsStar2 90 Posted May 21, 2018 Share Posted May 21, 2018 The oldest newscast on file at KTRK — August 23, 1978: They've been adding a fair amount of vintage material in the recent past. Some are parts of newscasts while others are the full ones... minus the close in some cases. 5/11/1976 - The infamous ammonia cloud in Southwest Houston 2/2/1980 - Clips from a weekend newscast 5/15/1980 - The Late Report 5/16/1980 - Live at Five 2 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/869-classic-video-thread-pre-2008/page/248/#findComment-204309 Share on other sites More sharing options...

DetroitTVNews 66 Posted May 24, 2018 Share Posted May 24, 2018 A KTVU report from presumably December 1988 by anchor Elaine Corral on Pixar's third annual Christmas party, after which she roasts Pixar laser scanner technician Don Conway. Pressing play will take you right to this report, which is part of a compilation of videos made for Pixar's 1988 Christmas party, which appears on the recently-uploaded DVD titled Made in Point Richmond. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=id=OIcu8w3rXTQ;t=337 2 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/869-classic-video-thread-pre-2008/page/248/#findComment-204594 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Info Junkie 1286 Posted May 25, 2018 Share Posted May 25, 2018 Apparently KLAS’ “News Image” period was split up into two parts, with this being the second half. This also must’ve been the tail end of that “8” before they changed their logo. 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/869-classic-video-thread-pre-2008/page/248/#findComment-204628 Share on other sites More sharing options...

onthesea 292 Posted May 26, 2018 Share Posted May 26, 2018 Argentinian TV news clips from Thursday, February 26, 1998, the day after the band Los Fabulosos Cadillacs won a Grammy award. I'm posting this because at the beginning of each video there are pieces of the graphic packages of the newscasts.

KnoxvilleTVFan 286 Posted May 26, 2018 Share Posted May 26, 2018 I am posting this, because this is some of the rarest clips of KXAS you'll ever find. News opens from 1984 are at :14 and 1:19. The opens feature an unknown theme and some amazing graphics used during the final years of "Action News." But that's not all. Jack Trammell's YouTube channel also has this rare video from KFDX. News open can be seen at 5:56. And this... News open can be seen at 8:06. KFDX used Tap Root Manuscript during the 1980s. Oh and one more... News open with ID can be seen at 9:56. 2 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/869-classic-video-thread-pre-2008/page/248/#findComment-204697 Share on other sites More sharing options...
